Last thing you told your horse?

It's his birthday- so I was saying something along the lines of "You're 17 now, that's roughly 51 in human years. You're old buddy!!" I did this whilst taking him to the field... his response??
To buck in front of me and gallop off up the field

I told both of mine I love them this morning! Ahhhhh!!!!
I told my little shetland mare NOT to go under the fencing into another pony's paddock, she looked at me as if to say 'yeah right!, you know I'm going so why not save your breath' and I told the big lad to stop her going and he looked at me as if to say' I have haylage, I couldn't care less what Madame does'!!!!!!
 
Told mine not to poo so much and to do it all in one place

(makes poo-picking easier

and "look after each other"

They didn't reply

Well last night I was telling Jack that he was a bloody thug, and just as well nobody else would want him or I'd sell him

but as I woke up this morning not too sore (at least until I fell down the stairs
crazy.gif
) I was a bit more civilised to him this morning - told him to try his best not to pull all his bed down through the day and I'd see him at teatime - like he really understands me lol!
 
I am continually talking to my boys, I am sure there is an element of understanding at times. Big boy was told how cheeky he was last night (spring is in the air) we went round the XC course to do some calorie burning and he was quite up for it. I then proceeded to tell him what a sweaty boy he was and he'd be better off if he had relaxed when I wanted him to walk to cool off. Then had a conversation about clipping him again before shows as his hairy armpits just won't do!
This morning had a huge conversation with both of them about which fly rug fits them best before turning out with just fly rug on and telling them I know its a little chilly right now (7am) but it'll be nice later on!
Every morning they get a morning boys as I walk out the car and then whinny at me and every night " night boys" as I turn lights off.
Yes we are all mad, but otherwise I would talk to myself so at least this way I can believe that at least someone is listening!
 
I told Dec sorry he can't go out today but the fields are being rolled and harrowed, don't have all your mates round (his box often looks like he's been holding an all night rave), no arguing with the bitch next door, no letting yourself out, stay clean and I'll see you tea time for a hack.

What are we like?!? I'm 45 for heavens sake!

Told ponio I'd see him later as he trotted off up the field. Out hacking the other week he got a full set of practise interview question answers and a full rendition of Girls Aloud's Love Machine!
 
'Stop chewing the wood you big thick turnip!' The farrier laughed, but Lanky was less than impressed!

I told George to 'stop p*ss-arsing around' when I was trying to unlock the chain to the gate, with one horse in one hand, one in the other and a car trying to drive past, while he tried to pull us all towards the tasty nettles that were so much more interesting that, err, staying out of the path of oncoming vehicles.

I feel a bit mean now, so maybe I will give them a kiss and tell them I love them later. Maybe not, though.

It was my girls birthday yesterday and I was saying the same thing to her! Though she's 23 now which I told her made her about 35 in human years, she's very 'sex and the city' when it comes to life, all about the boys and flicking her uber long main this way and that
smile.gif
she would not cope well with being told she was middle aged (or even worse 69 according yo your calcualtions
blush.gif
).
 
I told them all I would be back up later and a special hug to Hadiyah as he was gelded today so is feeling more than a little sorry for himself...
 
I took my pony's rug out to the field to put it on him this evening and he was scared of it and was snorting at it and so I called him a wimp.

If he could have replied he probably would have said, 'But mum! Rugs hanging on gates are very scary!'

In our last conversation i told Sunsilk that she could have made more of an effort to get to the front of the brains queue, instead of pushing and shoving her way to the front of the looks queue!
smirk.gif

As i left the yard i told her to be a good girl and i'll see her in the morning!
 
I told her that she is obviously well looked after (TOO well looked after!) as she has £230 worth of rug on and £60 of magnetic boots, plus £40 "worth" of metal attached to her feet... and she's only worth meat money herself
smirk.gif
Then I told her I loved her, that she was special, and I'd see her tomorrow evening
smile.gif

I always say good night and tell her I love her - she is so very special to me and even though she doesn't care one way or the other, if I forgot to tell her I loved her and the next morning she was dead in the field I'd feel pretty darned awful!
 
It went something like this:

Me: 'T mum has to go home now as she has work in the morning'.

Tyler: ' About time, you hang around here, groom, ride then bugger off and leave me'


Me: 'Awww, T dont look like that, mummy loves her baby, you have some fun talking to George'.

Tyler: 'George doesnt want to speak to me as you ruin my street cred by talking to me like this, leave me along woman'.

Me: 'Give mummy a big kiss and cuddle before she goes as she will miss you'.

Tyler: ' Go away, you had garlic bread for dinner didn't you' (cue him swinging bum in my face)

Me: 'Awww mummy will give your bum a hug just the same'.

lol.
 
That he was a muppet!
He is very good to hack out, although he naps he is rather bombproof and will go past anything half asleep. However today everything was going to eat him apparently.... the post man, dogs, bikes, trees, the white lines on the road even his own grooming box, rug and saddle when we were back at the yard. Utter numpty, never fails to make me smile.
